Desired Results
Co-Teaching: List the co-teaching style you’ll be using and why you have chosen this co-teaching method.
-Teaming is the main method we have chosen because it is important to students to hear the skills from both instructors. We also both have our strengths within teaching different skills.
-One teaching and one assisting will also be incorporated into this lesson because as students are being instructed by one teacher the other will go around to help with individual work.
Learning Objective: Key Understanding(s) you intend students to obtain:
- Why it is important to use proper form when shooting a basketball.
Assessment Evidence
What do you want your students to know? - How to hold the basketball correctly while shooting.
Ball on the tips of the students fingers on students shooting hand, not on the palm.
Guide hand on the side of the side of the basketball.
Thumbs from shooting hand and guide hand make a “T” when hands are together.
- Students need to use every aspect of “BEEF” to properly shoot a basketball
. “B” Balance- Students need to use proper balance when shooting a basketball. Comparable to athletic stance learned in flag football.
Feet shoulder width apart.
Foot on shooting hand side of body slightly forward.
Knees bent.
Straight back.
“E” Eyes- Students need to keep their eyes focused on the center of the rim.
“E” Elbow- Students need to keep elbow tucked in and perpendicular to the rim.
“F” Follow through- Students need to let ball roll off of their fingers to get rotation, then holding their follow through until ball goes through or hits the rim. Follow through is important just like in throwing and kicking a football.
What do you want students to be able to do?
- Hold the basketball on the tips of their fingers with shooting hand, and use fingertips on the side of the ball with guide hand. Hands make a “T”.
- Shoot a basketball using BEEF.
Group Accountability (Formative Evaluation) How will you check to see whether your class has met your learning objectives?
- Person to person observation
- Demonstrate abilities to class
- Review at end of class period students will explain critical elements of using BEEF and how they relate to critical elements learned in flag football.
Individual Accountability (Summative Evaluation)
Learning Plan
What key vocabulary/language will students need to know to meet the learning objective? - BEEF
Balance
Eyes
Elbow
Follow through
- Rotation
- Shooting
How will you teach this key vocabulary to enable students to meet the learning objective?
Key vocabulary will be used in instruction, then through demonstration and feedback from students.
What is/are the Essential/Guiding Question(s) for this Lesson? (It should correlate to your learning objective.)
